"A mistake," Gaius mutters, clutching at his hair as he paces madly about his quarters onboard Galactica. "I've made a mistake, that's all. Everyone makes mistakes."

"Mistakeis an awfully weak word for what you did, don't you think?"

He looks up to see her lounging on the utilitarian bed in her sexy red dress as he saw her so many times in his house on Caprica, and goes to her, sliding his hand beneath her hem and up her thigh.

"You were my mistake," he murmurs into her cleavage, feeling her stiffen in his embrace. Good. He wants to hurt her, as she hurt him. "I should have known that you, like all roses, would have thorns."

"Everyone makes mistakes, Gaius--everyone except God."
